Course content

1 section11 lectures1h 1m total length
  • MARY-STRUM WITH SLIDES (1 FINGER)3:18
  • MARY-STRUM WITH SLIDES (2 FINGERS)2:39
  • SAY HELLO TO MY LITTLE FRIEND...THE CAPO5:03
  • LEARN TO STRUM TO ANY SONG5:14

    Open the 2 attachments and follow the instructions in the attachment for "SCALE STUFF" while watching the video...this is VERY cool!


    Basically, choose a song you want to learn that is not too fast like "God Bless the USA by Lee Greenwood", then go to a search on the internet and ask "what key is God Bless the USA by Lee Greenwood in?"  It should say "F major", you would then go to the "Notes no the top string" attachment and find "F" on the top string...it's on the 3rd fret...put the capo there.  Start the song and start strumming...it's that easy!

    If the song you want to learn is in a key that say "minor"...like "A minor", go to the "SCALE STUFF" attachement and look at the middle section that says "Minor Scales (min)", find the row that has the minor letter you are looking for like "A" for A minor, find the 3rd note of the scale...in this case it would be "C", find the "C" on the top string with the other attachment, start the song and start strumming!

Description

Here we'll start using your existing skills to snowball your progress into something amazing! 


We'll explore fun tools like the capo.  We'll also learn new chops like pinch harmonics that are a cool but simple way of making more unique sounds based on your current knowledge of harmonics.  You'll  learn skills that will let you look and sound like you're playing 2 to 3 times faster than you really are.  You'll learn how to control the brightness of your picking and how long your strings ring out for ultimate control in a very simple way.  You'll learn more intricate ways of using your strum hand to play next level finger-style guitar to get the most out of your dexterity so you don't ever feel limited...you'll know it's just a matter of practice but mostly feeling to get that right emotion out of you playing and not sound so mechanical.  We'll also get into standard tuning so you will first, always feel comfortable picking up any guitar and be able to play or jam when the time comes.  You'll learn some new melodies, an amazing tip on how to play to virtually any song you can think of in less than a couple minutes...nobody else can make this promise! 


This is all part of our R.R.P.M. training system and YOU get the benefits from it.  Over 25 years of experience shrunk down into a few videos that you can watch during commercial breaks, waiting for your leftovers to warm up and finish watching and doing them all in an hour or less...yup, not a typo!  OK, enough of this...LET'S...GO!
